Still Behind You

Still Behind You

Every workstation you place follows you whenever nobody is looking.

Put down a crafting table, walk away, and turn around later. It may be several blocks closer than where you left it.

You will never see it move. Neither will anyone else.

Your furniture follows you

Crafting tables, furnaces, chests, anvils, enchanting tables, brewing stands, lecterns, and other workstations you place become followers.

Only blocks you placed yourself are tracked. Naturally generated blocks stay where they are, and breaking a follower removes it from the system.

Followers remain still while anyone can see them. Once they have been out of sight long enough, they take a step toward their owner.

They eventually arrange themselves in a fan-shaped formation behind you.

Nothing inside is lost

Followers keep their inventories and block data when they move.

• Lit furnaces remain lit and keep their smelting progress
• Fuel, items, names, and other stored data stay intact
• Double chests move together as one piece
• Blocks never move while their menu is open

They can follow you through portals

Followers can cross dimensions to continue following their owner.

Yes, this includes the Nether.

Make them stop

Craft a Restraining Order from one piece of paper and one red dye. Right-click a follower with it to permanently anchor the block in place.

Sneak-right-click the block with an empty hand to remove the order. Breaking an anchored block also returns it.

No jump scares

There are no monsters, voices, sudden noises, or scripted scares.

A moving block only plays its normal placement sound at reduced volume. The mod never announces what is happening.

You just keep finding your furniture closer than you remember leaving it.

Versions

Available for NeoForge, Forge, and Fabric on Minecraft 1.21.1 and 1.20.1.

The mod can run entirely server-side, allowing vanilla clients to connect.

Third-person awareness is the only feature that requires the mod on the client. Without it, players are treated as using first person.
